Scoffers in the Last Days

 “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, ‘Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep (died) all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.’” (II Peter 3:3-4)

The Bible teaches us that Jesus is coming to this earth again in what is called the Second Coming. The first coming of Jesus was to Bethlehem where He was born.

One of the signs of the second coming, and that He is near, are the scoffers who make fun of the whole idea, saying, “everything is just like it’s always been.” Proof of their scoffing is not only in what they say but in the way they live, “walking in sin after their own lusts.”

We are encouraged to make preparation for His return by being saved through faith in Christ Jesus and by living a life based on the teaching of God’s Word. Do you believe He is coming again? Be ready.
